Ding, ding..we have a WINNER!!

Well....I know that EVERYONE has just been dying to find out the sex of our baby, but let me assure you not nearly as much as moi. After a sleepless night (it felt like Christmas Eve like when I was a kid) we had our doctor visit today. The proud parents to be were very prepared with VHS tape and camcorder in hand (which I will post soon)......so without further ado.... we would like to announce that it appears that we have a very healthy BOY flavor in my belly!! Yep, that's what I said....a BOY! We are very excited! Now we just have to pick a name!!?? and decorate his room!!? and buy him cute clothes!!?....

Coley Meister!

We were able to watch Cole for Taylor and Jill on Dec. 6th when they had a Christmas party for work! We had too much fun! He loved, LOVED! playing with our Nerf Straightshot Shooters. But to tell you the truth I don't know who had more fun, Coley or Sigh! The minute Cole got to our house he started running, then he saw the stairs and must have remembered "the guns are down there!" Well, after running an errand and eating dinner the playing began. Also, Jill let me borrow her doppler to hear the babies heatbeat. Cole has seen that done once by his mother and twice now by me..he knew what to do!! (I missed the picture of him actually putting the doppler up to his own belly, so stinkin' cute!!)

Baby Bump

YES! I look pregnant, not just "oh, she's put on a few pounds"! I feel like I look huge for being just 18 weeks today, but if you look at it in months...that's 4 1/2 months...practically half way! I feel great! So, not so bad for half way!!! Thank goodness the nausea is over and I'm even getting a full night of sleep. I haven't even had to get up to use the restroom in the middle of the night! But don't worry..I know sleepless nights and frequent potty stops will return!

I've been feeling the baby and girls..it does not feel like gas..at least my gas! It feels like a flutter or a stretch from the inside! But, really I'm not sure how to describe it!

We have our ultrasound on Friday, December 21st! I am so excited to see our baby and to find out what it is!! I feel so blessed to be carrying this baby and I know Heavenly Father must love me!! I look forward to sharing our exciting news just before Christmas!
